      When a Master key is rotated by the MongoDB Enterprise using the command

      mongod --enableEncryption --kmipRotateMasterKey \
       --kmipServerName <KMIP Server HostName> \
       --kmipServerCAFile ca.pem --kmipClientCertificateFile client.pem

      the KMIP Client in it does not deactivate the master key which it was using prior to the rotation and the old key is left as a stale entry in the server.

      Also, please confirm if it has to be removed ideally or whether its retained for any specific reason.

      Added content from SERVER-53055:

      only two KMIP operations listed below are performed by the KMIP Client in MongoDB Enterprise.

      • Create
      • Get
